The original post stated that you share the decision making and responsibility for the safety of each flight. That is wrong. You don't decide what happens on my aeroplane...EVER.
CM You seem do have a very dim view of your fellow workers. Do me a favour and use one of your days off ( as I have ) to see what the other side of airline/airport work involves. Or are those four stripes on your shoulder so important that you can't consider other people?? It's not hard... leave the sims at home alone to fly across the water and use your time to get to know people and what they do... Go for a drink for god sake! Unwind with people! - without the stripes.....
